Antwort: Re: a node child

<xsl:if test="child::node()">
would test if any child node of the current node exists

<xsl:if test="child::node() != ''">
would test if any child node of the current node has a value

Please have a look at
http://selfhtml.teamone.de/xml/darstellung/xpathsyntax.htm
this is the german Version of selfhtml, but there is an french and spanish
version too.

Thema:   Re:  a node child


Hi Andrew,
first,thanks for the response.
The example i gave was perhaps a bad example, but i want a response in a
more general case i.e once located on a node. How could we test the
existence of a  given child node ?
Thanks
Abdessamad
